Anies said that this joglo house is indeed used for the public. Various activities can be done in this house. Such as health posts, PKK (Family Welfare Movement), tutoring, and the yard is used for children to play. (photo: Instagram/@biasalahanakmuda)

This joglo is not an ordinary building. This joglo is a former padepokan (Javanese traditional school) built in 1743 and was once a place where Prince Diponegoro studied. That is why Anies does not eliminate the function of this house as a private place, but rather an open space for the community. Anies also has a collection of 3,500 heritage books.

Anies Baswedan's house is the result of the work of craftsmen. For Anies, carpentry in Indonesia has been around for hundreds of years and is passed down from generation to generation. Therefore, Anies chooses for the carpenters to do craftsmanship instead of just being installers. (photo: Instagram/@biasalahanakmuda)

What's unique is that Anies' house does not use concrete paving so that water can evenly seep into the house. It is known that the former Governor of Jakarta applies a zero runoff system to prevent flooding. (photo: Instagram/@biasalahanakmuda)
